Just got offered a job, but is the commute worth it?
I recently moved to Oahu and got offered a job at a nonprofit in Honolulu. Unfortunately the position only pays $12/hr and doesn't offer parking. Fees for parking in this area can run hundreds of dollars a month so taking the bus would be my only option. The commute would mean an hour-long (possibly longer depending on traffic) bus ride to and from work, plus I'd have to walk several blocks to get to my workplace, meaning the total commute would be like 1.5 hrs one-way. I want this job but I don't know if the time and hassle to get there every day would be worth it. I know many people commute to work but it seems like most only do it because the pay is worth it. Should I just bite the bullet and accept the job (and the commute) or keep looking?
